Idea

Introduction

TripShift is a B2B focussed technology platform that makes it easy for companies to track, reduce and report their Scope 3 emissions which includes commuting, business travel and logistics.

The technology understands where you are moving but also how you are moving. We have automated the process making it simple and resource-efficient for both individual users and their employer/organisation.

It facilitates reductions in carbon emissions by identifying hotspots and opportunities to travel more sustainably, supporting the organisation's net zero reduction strategies.

We believe our reporting platform will make carbon accounting with the legislative authorities simple - an automated process combining supporting and verification data into a seamless process.

TripShift meets growing regulatory and stakeholder demands for these emissions to be measured. It aims to provide the vital insights required to support behaviourial change and invites organisations and their employees to, quite simply - Move Better.

Monetisation strategy

How is your business going to collect employee scope 3 emissions data? Who is going to do it? How are they going to do it? Bigger teams just multiply the complexity and resources.

TripShift aims to provide the solution to these questions, and so our core revenue stream is intended to be based around our B2B SaaS technology and data platform.

B2B SaaS - Automated Scope 3 commuting, business travel and logistics emissions tracking - for less than the price of a cup of coffee per user/per month.

'Powered by TripShift' - API/SDK is intended to allow the platform to be integrated or white-labelled into existing corporate or ERP platforms. Data analysis, critical insights to city network/infrastructure planners, transport technology designers, manufacturers and operators.

Marketplace - Move Better partners, carbon absorption, public transport and active travel providers.

Specialist Product Development - we will aim to develop Travel providers and global logistics.

Use of proceeds

Our philosophy is to aim to complete all technical and business development with a tightly controlled cost and resource environment and this will not change as we move forward into the next exciting stage of our development.

Investment income from this round will be used almost entirely to support business growth activities including adding additional sales, business development resources and marketing activities.

Key Information

Material Debt

The company has the following outstanding loans:

£30,000 Bounce Back Loan from Natwest at an interest rate of 2.5% per annum. The loan is to be repaid in monthly installments with the final repayment by 2026.

The funds raised from this investment round will not be used to repay these loans.

Share Classes

The company currently has 2 classes of shares, Ordinary and B Ordinary. All investors in this round, including Seedrs investors, will be receiving Ordinary shares.

The only difference between these share classes is that B Ordinary Shares do not hold voting rights, whereas Ordinary shares do hold pro-rata voting rights.

Investing involves risks, including loss of capital, illiquidity, lack of dividends and dilution, and should be done only as part of a diversified portfolio. Please read the Risk Warnings before investing. Investments should only be made by investors who understand these risks. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and is subject to change in future.

This campaign for TripShift. Move Better. has been approved by Seedrs Limited (trading as Republic Europe) ("Republic Europe", "us" or "we"), as of 21 April 2022 as a financial promotion. Republic Europe is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority with firm reference number 550317. In approving this campaign, Republic Europe has concluded that the information, taken as a whole, is "fair, clear and not misleading." This means that for factual statements we have reviewed evidence of their accuracy, and that for aspirational statements we believe they are phrased appropriately in light of their speculative nature. You should note that in the case of factual statements, the evidence we review is provided by the business, and we do not audit it, which means that we may not be able to identify forged or altered evidence. You should further note that in the case of aspirational statements, the nature of the type of businesses presented on the Republic Europe platform is such that they are likely to have high ambitions, and we may approve statements that convey those ambitions even where we do not believe, or we do not have a view on whether it is likely, that they will be fully realised. The pre-money valuation and investment sought in the campaign are those set by the business: they are not reviewed or established by us, and the valuation is not an independent view of what the business is worth. Given the nature and type of businesses presented on the Republic Europe platform, it is possible that the business has very little cash remaining prior to receiving this investment, and the investment sought may be necessary for the business's on-going existence.

Republic Europe does not make investment recommendations to you. No communications from Republic Europe, through this website or any other medium, should be construed as an investment recommendation. Further, nothing on this website shall be considered an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any security to any person in any jurisdiction to whom or in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful. Republic Europe does not provide legal, financial or tax advice of any kind. If you have any questions with respect to legal, financial or tax matters relevant to your interactions with Republic Europe, you should consult a professional adviser.

Valuation (pre-money)

Valuation rounded from £2,642,320

This is the fully-diluted pre-money valuation of the business (i.e. before the new investment comes in and including issued options and other equity interests). In contrast, the post-money valuation is based on inclusion of the new investment in the value.

It is calculated as the pre-money valuation plus the amount of new investment. e.g. If Company A is ascribed a pre-money valuation of £1,200,000 by prospective investors investing £300,000, its post-money valuation is £1,500,000.

The investee business is responsible for setting its own valuation, it has not been prescribed by Seedrs.

Pitch type

Investing in a regular equity campaign is the simplest and most common way to invest in a startup. You decide which business you want to invest in, and if the campaign hits its funding target then you will become one of their shareholders. As the company becomes more valuable, so do your shares; allowing you the opportunity to share in the future success of the business.

Learn more about pitch type on Seedrs

Equity Offered

The equity offered is the percentage of the company’s shares being issued in return for the amount of investment raised.

When the amount raised is less than 100%, the equity offered is based on the target raise. Once the company has raised over 100% it is based on the total raised.

In some scenarios, entrepreneurs may accept additional direct investment after closing their Seedrs campaign. Provided this is within 6 months of the closing and on the same terms, we do not typically offer pre-emption rights on that extra investment (where you have the opportunity to invest again to maintain your percentage shareholding).

Learn more about investing and pre-emption rights.

Nominee investment

This shows if you are able to choose, when making an investment, that you be represented by, and your shareholding be managed by, the Nominee investment.

Custodian

If you invest in this Campaign, Seedrs will act as Custodian rather than provide our standard nominee service. This is due to the fact that the business is not directly involved in the share sale and Seedrs will not benefit from any rights under a shareholder agreement. As a result, Seedrs will handle administrative tasks as we do normally, but you will not have information or voting rights, updates from the business, preemption on future fundraising, or ongoing support about business trading activity.

Secondary market

This shows if the business has opted-in or opted-out of allowing its shares to be bought and sold on the secondary market.

Direct investment

This is an option to invest and hold shares 'directly' in the company (rather than via the Nominee investment). This option is only available to those investing over the threshold amount, which is determined by the fundraising company.

If you choose to hold your shares directly, you will be responsible for any contractual or administrative arrangements with the company you are investing in.

Payment options

We are not able to accept card payments for investments into this sector. You can pay for your investment by creating a bank transfer, using funds in your investment account or create a Pay by Bank payment. Your investment will only be completed once the funds have reached our account.

Business Involvement

This Campaign offers shares for sale in business that is not directly involved in this Campaign or the sale. As a result, the Campaign and post-investment experience, including investor rights, will differ from a business-led campaign on Seedrs. Most notably, the business will not engage with investors in the discussion forums both during and after the sale or provide any updates to investors.
